Dave Marrs Wikipedia
Dave didn’t follow in his father’s footsteps, a soldier. Indeed, he chose a completely different path. He has always loved building; hence, his career choice now.
His first job was for Rubbermaid in 2002, where he coincidentally met his now-wife, Jenny. His corporate job involved traveling and relocating, and by the following year, he planned on becoming a builder.
Then, he finally left his desk job in 2004 to pursue his passion for building, with not much experience. Dave started Marrs Developing that same year. He moved to Arkansas and was struggling to make a name for himself.
His then-girlfriend, Jenny, would help however she could with designing, but she had no background in the interior design whatsoever. Still, they continued building houses in Bella Vista until the 2008 US housing market crash but luckily survived. They then transitioned to renovating and restoring old homes.
HGTV reached out to the couple for a proposal of a lifetime, but the couple was hesitant at first. But, after careful thought and a cast of doubt on the portrayal of their rural community, they decided to give it a shot. The show first aired in 2017 as Almost Home and was a hit among fans. HGTV renamed the show Fixer to Fabulous in 2019 and is known for Dave & Jenny’s authenticity.

Dave and his wife, Jenny, are devout Christians, with Dave having only one tattoo on his right arm. The tattoo in question is on his right arm and feature Hebrew letters related to Psalm 18:2. The verse refers to God as the deliverer and is Dave’s profession of God’s power over his struggles.
Jenny shared the explanation in a now-deleted tweet.

The Marrs’ primary source of income is from Dave’s construction company. Marrs Developing may have gained even more clients from the show, meaning more business for the couple. The couple has a net worth of $2 million and amassed their wealth from years in the industry.
Wife and Kids
As mentioned above, the reality star met his wife, Jenny, while working for Rubbermaid in 2002. Both were working for the same company, although her job was focused on sales and marketing and Dave’s somewhere else.
Dave’s wife was always very supportive of her husband and has been with him since he started Marrs Developing in 2004. Then, they married in April 2005, after only a few years of dating, and have been together for 16 years now.
The couple welcomed their first children, Ben & Nathan, in 2010. Then Sylvie, followed by Charlotte, and their youngest, 2-year-old Luke. The couple also has one adopted daughter, Sylvie, who was born in Congo, and who they welcomed in 2012.
